SABATON – will return to North America with their dynamic live stage show in 2014

2013-11-18 - Praised by the L.A. Weekly for the “over-the-top symphonic sounds and boundless energy” they brought to the stage when they opened for IRON MAIDEN at the sold-out Battle of San Bernardino show in September, Swedish heavy metal superstars SABATON are returning to the U.S. and Canada in 2014 as direct support to American metallers ICED EARTH on their “Worldwide Plagues” North American tour. Opening each show of the six-week trek on their maiden North American tour will be Dutch heavy metallers REVAMP.

Checking in from Sweden, SABATON bass player Pär Sundström states: “We are really looking forward to return for the first SABATON full North American run since 2011. Three great bands on tour together, this will for sure be fantastic!”

SABATON will be out supporting their »Swedish Empire Live« DVD release - the band’s largest live production to date – which hit North America on October 29th. Filmed in front of 600,000+ enthusiastic fans at their headlining festival appearance at Poland’s Woodstock Festival in 2012, »Swedish Empire Live« captures the band’s spine-tingling, soul-soaring, high-energy live stage show saturated with fist-pumping anthems celebrating the triumph of the human spirit.
